Default WANTED: Cruise control bits for Volvo 850

Hi guys

I want to put cruise control in my 850 - anyone have a car they are stripping that they can grab the bits off for me?

Cheers,

Pretty sure I've got most of it, too. See what TC turns up, and I'll see what I can do about filling in any blanks.

cheers
